Purpose of Life

Simple question? What’s your purpose of life?  An Authentic, Mind-blowing question cross over minds from our existence. Ordinary and extraordinary men and woman, to analyses lengthwise and breadthwise tormenting brains at Princeton or chilling at Hawai beaches or perhaps having sex at a backseat of a Martute car amid extreme Mumbai traffic. People spent too much time searching answers to biggest retreat required for living, but still to find answers.

Perhaps you can find come close proximity to answer if you can find absolute truth behind what you see and act truthfully to what you feel; if someday extraordinary mind can measure amount of temptation while praying at churches asking salvation from god or count number of men lose dignity over emptied bottles or woman loose virginity over false temptation.

I know remembering my question is a task for you all now??  Have you add reminder in your smart app.

I’m not going to give answers or make it worse.

It’s a paradox. Life purpose equation should have parameters as men + woman + god + temptation to find ultimate answers.

I know lot of extraordinary minds made deliberate effort by uploading YouTube  videos , writing exciting insight on blogs and books with heap of findings to empower and embrace people to find true purpose for their living. but badly problem continues for most.

People continue to search truth from Brothels, restaurants, music concerts, theaters, art galleries, testing labs to find answers. This, my dear friends is no difference. Here with no particular order I will make a silly attempt to scratch the surface of the matter.

To find answers I decided to ask from my friends.  Answers I got was fascinating & staggering, none of them want   ‘ to live happy’, ‘ to help others’, ‘ be better tomorrow’.  Lot of them want to ‘ marry the sexiest girl/boy in town’, ‘ earn six digits salary’, ‘ own brand new vehicle ‘. They keep chasing down a purpose, once they achieve again raise the requirements.

I asked same question from different set of people I met. These people were mostly beggars, homeless people, labors in street, people who earn and live below one dollar per day.  They seem to live in other spectrum of equation. Their answers were like ‘I need to eat everyday’, ‘new cloths ‘, ‘ good place to sleep’.

Well now it’s time for you to answer my question.

There is no correct or wrong answer. As wise old man, I expect a relatively correct answer. These answers would suit your own way of living and virtues of heart.

Have you answered as ‘be happy’?

Separating from materials can bring inner peace and happiness is a relative truth.  You can’t live without materials or satisfaction; you need lot of them to be happy in life and also lot of other physical and mental ingredients.

The daunting truth of modern man has little difference with ape’s in jungle. We seek pleasure greater than our ancestors.  Our untamed desire for materials and physical satisfactions taken us to the moon. A place where only ego can live , a place where too many people worry about pot belly’s, size of sex organs, or shape of  their body (s). We continued to praise model and six pack abs beyond all realities. We keep praising hilarious reality shows, fake athletes and dilapidated politicians to take decisions of our future.

 We missed time, quality time need to spend with families over unwanted stupidity and fake glory.

Have you remembered my question?

It’s you should decide what’s worth for you to die for. A purpose worth to define who you and what you want in life.

I know I’m not answered the question. Perhaps I ignite something inside you to think a little more, something  within you.

Number Game of Success

Keep an eye on numbers to identify and quantitatively measure personal and professional success is a practice for long time. It does provide scaling out mechanism for two individuals to represent weight of their career achievements in term of skill, experience, wealth, credibility and probability of success. If you take a look at your career experience, it does provide one vertical of your life, but prove nothing as a whole.

Sometimes these numbers are utter lies vividly represent glimpse of your strength or weakness differently. Ironic case is salary. Dozens of working class men and woman believe pay is below and students keep looking at result sheets with frozen eyes.

Does that mean unsuccessful? Why does it happen? Why people question numbers representing ability? How often you see bright student just pass the exam and average student get over with merits.

What makes you successful? Is it numbers? Emotions? Family and relationships?  Can winning 3 billion us$ make you successful? What if all these numbers are lies built upon each lie?  What if every one of us caring profound strength beyond what’s hovering around the surface.

One common mistake we make is measure success as individuals. We human’s naturally a group animal. For many thousand years we hunted as group, strategies as groups and enjoyed success as groups. Our success has a direct connection to the group we are attached to but we keep same mistake for many generations by measuring the success by individual effort.

Numbers bring success is a common believe accumulate irrespective to the context. It is considered as ideal logical approach to represent strength. Even age, education, experience does provide facts as numbers, but doesn’t necessarily provide evidence to prove you as successful. It may well be ingredient to success. 

This post will look at three cases represent strength of teams which deflect from traditional numbering believe system.

1. Weak- Strong Team: – People work as teams to deliver goals and expectations. If weak being part of a successful team weak probably ride on success of others until team transform to weak- weak team.  His/Her strength will propelled unrealistically, hence may enjoys undeserved benefits based on strategic moves, causes of action initiated by successful people. When you measure up an individual strength of a weak in such a case would be unrealistic.
2. Strong-weak Team: – This is flip side of the coin. Weak team may present an extra challenge to a strength person to hold the ship together.  Most often he/ she may require demanding task/ decisions taken yet to receive poor recognition in company. If strength can deliver success, constantly it may be possible makeover to strength- strength team. This case also weak can ride on top of strength.
3.  Strong – Strong team: – This is the ideal combination of man power for a start up companies to ripple success or older stable companies to increase market share, innovation and upheaval  results. This type of team strength is far strong than individual strength creating synergies team. Most often synergy team, individual strength may reflect above their reality. These people may enjoy above strength benefits. Once company grows up to considerable market share these teams also can transfer into weak-strong or weak- weak team. It’s essentially important to keep a strong-strong team to walk extra mile.

There are more people riding on the success of others. A person born today in Australia would enjoys better quality of life just because of strength of a country while guy born in Africa may battling out to survive.

This is a one post of several articles related to success.
